Liberty Star Uranium & Metals ( (LBSR) ) has provided an announcement.

On March 10, 2026, Liberty Star Minerals announced it had staked an additional 13 mining claims covering about 11.18 square miles in the Tombstone Mining District, expanding its total mineralized footprint to roughly 31.49 square miles and ranking Hay Mountain Holdings as the fourth-largest mineral footprint in Arizona. The enlarged, contiguous land position is intended to protect extensions of known structural and geophysical trends, preserve optionality for future open-pit and underground development, and secure additional gold and polymetallic targets, as the company advances exploration at Red Rock Canyon and the broader Hay Mountain area through drilling design, expanded geochemical sampling and refined 3D geophysical interpretation.

Management said recent mapping, sampling and induced polarization surveys indicate a large mineralized system with bonanza-grade gold values and strong geophysical signatures across Hay Mountain, prompting the move to secure a larger perimeter around its assets. Positioned in one of the world’s premier copper-gold-molybdenum regions and a leading U.S. jurisdiction for critical minerals, the expanded claims strengthen Liberty Star’s strategic footprint in Arizona and may enhance its long-term development and partnership options for stakeholders as exploration results continue to emerge.
